The Five Stages of Climate Change Denial

  1. Climate change isn’t happening.
  2. Climate change is happening, but it’s part of the Earth’s natural cycles.
  3. Climate change is happening, it may well be due to human activity, but it’s generally beneficial.
  4. Climate change is happening, it’s probably due to human activity, but it’s not going to be as bad as the computer models suggest.
  5. Climate change is happening, it is caused by human activity, it’s a really bad thing, but there’s very little we can do about it and there are lots of other bad things we should attack first.

Funny how they bypass "Climate change is happening, it is caused by human activity, it’s a really bad thing and we have a moral duty to do whatever we can to mitigate it, even though there are lots of other bad things we should attack at the same time".
